Hi All,

I have a modal form with an ActiveX control on it, this form is modal.
On this form I also have a button which calls another form using "DO FORM...".

The second form is not modal, but it behaves like a modal form as it was called from a modal form, this is normal. The problem is when the second form is closed
and you return to the first form, the ActiveX control stops responding to mouse
input.

SO far I have found 2 ways to stop this:

1. Specify the second form to be modal on its property sheet.
2. Make the ActiveX control invisible before calling the other form and then making it visible when the other form is closed.

Both of these workarounds are unacceptable as the second form is called from other locations where it can't be modal, and making the control invisible looks very bad.

So far I have found this on the following controls in VFP 6 & 7:
1. "MSComCtlLib.ListViewCtrl.2"
2. "MSComCtlLib.Slider.2"

The only remotely similar thing on could find at Microsoft is this which does not apply at all.

Does anybody have any ideas on this problem?

Thanks,

Chris Ormerod
